CycleCloud version 8.3.0

  • Article

New Features:

  • LSF and Slurm schedulers now support SLES
  • RHEL/SLES Hybrid Benefit licensing is now supported
  • Added cyclecloud_slurm start_nodes command that starts and prevents nodes from scaling down
  • Spot VMs are now supported for regular non-array nodes
  • Added a fix_mismatched_attributes command to help with MPI nodes getting unintended changes
  • Nodes can be allocated into pre-existing VMSS Flex scale sets
  • Automatically accepting marketplace terms can now be enabled/disabled on the subscription create and edit forms
  • Updated CycleCloud licensing terms

Resolved Issues:

  • Authentication failures would not trigger the 5-minute lockout
  • Calling cyclecloud import_template with name of an existing cluster would hide the cluster
  • Nodearrays allowed “Persistent” disks to be specified, but this is not valid with scale sets
  • GridEngine nodes would always fail at least once due to hostname validation
  • Slurm nodename hostname had DNS validation issues
  • System time differences would prevent Slurm nodes from joining the cluster.
  • Slurm would not install on CentOS 8
  • Icons did not display properly when using a custom webContextPath
  • Large numbers of node arrays caused the cloud-init editor to have a horizontal scrollbar
  • Cluster init changes caused an incorrect "mismatched attributes" error
  • Jetpack defaulted to incompatible RAID superblock version.
  • The http_proxy.url cluster setting was not backwards compatible
